I just moved to Alabama from Florida last July. I watched the Florida bills with some interest, then discovered from NCSE around the time that the FL bill died that Alabama had one in the works. It appears to come up every year or nearly so.I’m glad to see it died. A lot of bills died in AL this year. The Senate spent most of the session in filibuster, so not much will make it through in the end.

Keep fighting the good fight, Ryan!I was at dinner in Montgomery this evening, and a couple took note of my “Science: It Works, Bitches” t-shirt and asked where they could get their own.There are pockets of sanity here in ‘Bama.

Greg,Do you know anything about this?http://www.nea.org/lac/highered/freedomposition.htmlGreat news about Alabama – I hope Ed Brayton is right about the Michigan bill and it dies in committee.

It bothers me that my home state has such a huge problem with evolution. I’m doing my part though, trying to refute creationism:http://www.aigbusted.com-Ryan
